Marion Maréchal n'a pas aimé que je lui rappelle les vrais chiffres de l'immigration, donc elle a passé son temps à me couper.

Ma compagne doit payer les obsèques de son papa. Les frais d'obsèques sont de 7675€. Ma compagne n'a pas les moyens de payer cette somme, puisqu'elle est handicapée et attend de pouvoir toucher l'AAH, et sa maman est également handicapée et au minimum vieillesse.

Dans une interview sur France Inter il a confessé ne pas parler un mot de français mais qu'il adorait la France et sa culture.
A-t-il donc passé le test de connaissance du français obligatoire pour toute naturalisation ou c'est réservé aux pauvres non médiatisés ?

she just got the house to pass her bill criminalizing trans care for people under 18 years old.

the only mention in this piece is about how she’s upset trump hasn’t done *enough* to harm trans kids. oh and a quote from her saying trans people are all “perverted”.

Far-right groups are co-opting the aesthetics of the Crusades for their own objectives, transforming an obsession with feudal justice into a campaign for a White Christian nation.
Why We Should All Be Worried About "Crusadercore"

Alerté vendredi par la mairie de Paris sur la situation « dramatique » des quelque 3 500 sans abri de la capitale, l’État (via la préfecture de Région) n’a pas voulu activer le plan « grand froid » (qui permet notamment de réquisitionner des lieux d’hébergement), selon Le Parisien.
